Air asia service to be discontinued to Sri Lanka

Jan 23rd, 2013

Malaysia’s budget carrier AirAsia is withdrawing daily flights from Kuala Lumpur to Colombo from 26 February saying the decision is “due to commercial reasons”.
The unexpected development also surprised the local airline industry who were unaware of any marketing/viability problems, if any, that the airline had on its route to Colombo. It was a popular airline and cheaper that the bigger carriers, industry sources said.
